Honestly, Luke didn't think that Lion would be so polite, after all, aside from having meaningless pride, Luke always thought that lions, in general, were just lazybum drunkards who only ever sleep or get into fights.

Lion, releasing the last polite laugh began to talk about the important things. " Now then, let's get to the point. My element is gravity and I can repel pretty much anything. It's an area of effect power but I can concentrate it. "

Finishing, he looked at Andrea. " My elements are light and electricity. I can shoot a kinda plasma beam. " Then, they both looked at Luke who was quite surprised that she had two elements. Quickly debating whether to say that he had two elements or just talk about one, Luke came to a surprising decision

" My elements are space and darkness. I can shoot a dark railgun and move fast and stealthily. " He decided to really reveal his elements not because his conscience didn't permit him to lie ( obviously ) but because they were all the special cases.

If he only demonstrated a mid-tier element, which he did with his teammates, they would be suspicious. Trust would then be impossible between them. He wanted them to trust him, even if just a little as they were people worth befriending.

It's not because he likes to be alone that he couldn't build connections, in fact, building connections is as essential as making people drop their guard around you. That, he understood since young.

Nodding his head thoughtfully, Lion and an equally thoughtful Andrea looked at each other and said at the same time " That's a pretty wasteful mix. " Luke looked at them bewildered and asked " Why do you say that? "

Feeling pity for this ignorant newbie, Andrea explained: " Well, darkness and space are amazing elements but having both is useless." Spotting an even more bewildered look on Luke's face, she continued " I mean, everything that darkness does, space does better. For movement, nothing beats space ( and time ), offensively, space powers are always stronger than darkness ones, for stealth, once again, space does better."

Having a troubled frown on his face, Luke once again asked her to develop, but Lion replied instead " In the later stages, space element can be developed to somehow be a different dimension altogether. You just can't easily spot a dimension as it becomes different from ours while darkness stays in the dimension. "

With a wry smile, Luke finished the bullying of darkness element " So in the end, space is like a perfected version of darkness, me having both is like having two right arms, with one being stronger than the other... sigh. "

If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

Looking at Luke with some pity, Lion lightly tapped his shoulder and said " Even though it's pretty wasteful, these two are in the end different. I don't know the specifics but there are things that you can do with darkness that you can't with space."

At that, Luke thought ' Of course there are, like creating nukes ' But that thought stayed in his head. Instead, he just nodded ' dejectedly '.

As if by prior agreement, the system prompt resounded just after they finished talking

* Your mission is to destroy the T2 base and kill every enemy. More points will be awarded if prisoners are freed. You have 18 hours. *

Once again, they were silently teleported without them knowing how to appear in front of the said base, behind a hill. It looked like a fort with two towers, which seemed to be used to monitor the surroundings as what looked like archers stood on them, and a brick wall that made it impossible to see anything beyond.

Observing around, Lion asked Luke for a strategy, not being good at it himself. " Well, the strategy I'm the best at is not very usable in this situation. " He said this with an awkward face. Curious about what it was, Andrea pressed on " What is it then? Maybe it can be used. "

As if mustering some courage Luke talked.

" My favorite tactic is to save my strength, efficiently killing my enemies in a stealthy and quick manner while defending my position. "

" In other words?"

" I camp. " ( What is more of a jerk than a camper? Sigh, Maybe I'm making him too true to his character? )

"..."

"..."

They said at the same time " disgusting."

Luke said with a helpless face " That's why it's unusable here. Though, I have another that may work. "

Trying to forget about his disgust, Lion still pressed on for him to talk. With a straight face, Luke said matter of factly " We raze everything. "

Not thinking for a second that a camper would have these kinds of balls, Lion was very surprised at first then began boisterously laughing while Andrea snickered. " Well, this strategy oddly suits me. What about the hostages though? "

Still keeping his straight face, Luke replied " We, unfortunately, couldn't save them because of the enemies number. " Luke didn't just propose to brutally destroy everything because he was lazy, but because he had the feeling that the difficulty of freeing the hostages while destroying the base would just be absurd. His experience on earth can bear witness of the accuracy of this feeling.

Sighing, Andrea and Lion nodded their heads and focused on the base. Lion then said " I will blow up these towers. You two blast everything inside. Is that okay? " " Yep "

Lion then ascended the hill and got in front of the base. The archers within the tower began to shoot at him. Lion then brought his right hand forward and everything, be it the wall, the archers or the towers got brutally repelled back, effectively destroying everything.

Luke and Andrea then used their abilities to bomb everything inside. A gigantic white beam of light and a dark one, which is just a 20 dark blast stack traveled side by side towards the now visible base, which was just a one story, simple building.

The beams, upon contact, exploded and, because of their repulsive natures, ignited each other even further, creating a bigger explosion which razed everything.

Michael Bay would be proud, or a certain clay using ninja for this matter.
